MORRISON GLASGOW DISTILLERS LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: SC426476)

Managing Director's Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

The financial year has been another year of significant activity for the business, with a continued focus on strengthening the underlying business and positioning the company for sustainable, long-term growth, despite the ongoing pressures being experienced across the industry.

2025 saw a reduction in turnover compared with 2024, primarily due to an exceptional stock swap in 2024, which resulted in an unusually high turnover for that year. Financial performance was also impacted by increased production costs, higher borrowing costs and continued softness across all export markets.

Maturing inventory continued to increase in value, further strengthening the balance sheet.

During the year, the business continued to make progress across its key operational areas, particularly production. 2025 saw our highest level of production to date and the successful completion of the distillery production expansion. The distillery is now capable of producing approximately 850,000 LPA per year, an increase from 550,000 LPA.

We remain focused on improving operational efficiency, developing our customer base and maintaining the quality and integrity of the brand.

The Scotch whisky market remained challenging during the year, following the exceptional growth experienced in the post-pandemic period. While near-term market conditions remain uncertain, the long-term fundamentals of Scotch whisky remain attractive, supported by its global reputation, premium positioning and growing international demand.

The Board has continued to focus on strengthening the balance sheet and ensuring that the business is appropriately positioned for the next phase of growth.

While we remain mindful of the continuing challenges within the wider market, management and the Board remain confident in the long-term prospects of the business.

Our priorities for the coming year will be to distil at appropriate levels relative to demand, maintain tight control of costs and cash, and continue to build the underlying value of the business.

I would like to thank the Board, our employees, shareholders and business partners for their continued support and contribution throughout the year.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Morrison Glasgow Distillers Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Scotland. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Significant judgements and estimates
The preparation of the financial statements, in compliance with FRS 102, requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the company's accounting policies. The directors are of the opinion there are no critical accounting estimates. The directors have exercised their judgement in relation to the allocation of attributable labour costs to bulk spirit and to maturing product and this has been done in order to ensure that a true and fair view is presented.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discount and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and rendering of services in connection with the distillery and the visitor centre and shop.

Timing of revenue recognition
Sales are recognised depending on the individual customer terms at the time of dispatch, delivery or when the risk of loss transfers.

Revenue from the sale of cased goods is recognised when the goods are shipped. Revenue from the sale of bulk spirit is recognised when the goods are dispatched or when the ownership of the stock is transferred to the purchaser.

Revenue from the visitor centre, which can comprise the sale of goods or the rendering of services in the form of visitor tours, tastings and hosting events, are recognised at the point of sale or the point of the services being provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract.

Intangible fixed assets
The intangible fixed assets held in the balance sheet relate to patents purchased by the company. These have been capitalised as it is expected future benefits will flow to the entity over the assets useful economic life.The intangible assets are being amortised at the following rates.

Patents & licenses - 5% on reducing balance

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged to profit or loss over the estimated useful economic lives, as follows:

Fixtures & Fittings - 5% reducing balance
Computer equipment - 25% reducing balance
Website development - 25% reducing balance
Plant and machinery - casks - 5% straight line basis
Plant and machinery - remainder - 5% reducing balance basis.

The company purchased land during the year ended 30 June 2015 for £1,081,705 and this is included within freehold property in fixed assets. Land is considered to have an indefinite life and accordingly is not depreciated. The remaining freehold property is not depreciated on the basis that the property is well maintained and is increasing in value.

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

At each reporting date the company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

Any impairment loss is recognised immediately as an expense within profit or loss

Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition as follows;

Raw materials - Purchase cost on an average cost basis,.
Work in Progress and finished goods - cost of direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and attributable overheads based on a normal level of activity.

At each reporting date an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
Trade and other debtors/creditors

Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade and other creditors are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses in the case of trade debtors. If the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, for example if payment is deferred beyond normal business terms, then it is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised within profit or loss.

For financial assets that are measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the assets original effective interest rate. If a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate of measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.

For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount that the company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the balance sheet date.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
